Does your car still have the bucktags ?
If so, what do they say?

You did see on the 'tech page' that DSO 23 is Memphis, right?

Yes , i did see the Memphis for a DSO 23 ....the question we have is why the car fax shows Arkansas for the first 40k miles of its life ???

Maybe because there was/is no DSO in Arkansas?

Interesting DSO...unfortunately, with a non-special paint, generic DSO POLICE stamping on your DSO tag, you may have a difficult time identifying the original agency it served with. It's not impossible, but may be a challenge.

Thanks Mike,
At this point i'm most interested in finding out if it's a Tenn on an Arkansas SSP ??? so i can further my search ..... Is there anyone else that can help ???? So does this make my car a little rare or an odd ball???? i noticed in the SSP registry that there are no Tenn or Arkansas cars registered ???? thanks ssp91ssp 956/802-2983 08 super duty 03 cobra 91 ssp ????? 89 LX Hatch ,302, stock cam,aod, turbocharged.. 9.97@133mph 89 Coupe 5.0 .

It wasn't necessarily a state car. Many city and county departments used these as well.
Maybe you could start with a title search in Arkansas?
